- Human RIghts Foundation Story of the Week
Russia | Woman On Trial for Pro-Ukraine Donation
During a family visit in Yekaterinburg, Russia, Ksenia Karelina, a Russian-American ballerina who lives in Los Angeles, Calif., was arrested by Russian authorities. Her crime? Making a $51.80 donation to a pro-Ukraine charity is deemed an act of treason under Russian law. Her trial will be held in August. If found guilty, she faces a potential 20-year prison sentence. Karelina’s case illustrates the severe measures dictator Vladimir Putin enforces against any form of financial aid, even modest amounts, to opposition movements. It highlights why Russian human rights groups like the Anti-Corruption Foundation have found it useful to receive payments in Bitcoin to help protect the identities of their donors. - FinancialFreedomReport.org
